“TUESDAY, JULY 20, 1926, eveeeecoeoce geoces . STRAND POCRCOSOCOERESLOCOSEEOSE: TODAY “East Lynne” Is Best Known Play of Ages It is doubtful if any stage play ever has been shown to more peo- ple or in more cities and towns than “East Lynne,” which Wiiliem ' Fox has put on the screen under he direction of Emmett Flynn, and which shows at the Strand Theatre today. This perennial favorite has been in the repertoire of every stock eompany for the last two generations; it has played on Broadway, New York, Podunk ’ Crossing and Hog Eye, Texas; it has thrilled the social elite as well as the gallery god in nearfy every country on the globe. Why? Because the story of “East Lynne” is one that never gets out- of-date. It doesn’t depend for its appeal on the passing fad or fancy of the moment, It doesn’t ‘deal with “votes for women” or “the flapper problem” or ‘“‘whose hootch and why,” no, it isn’t the sort of play that dies out when the par- ticular popular complex of the moment gives way to another. For the story of “East Lynne” is based on intense love interest, on the devotion and self-sacrifice of a woman for her ideal—and what more universal and lasting appeal need a picture or a play have than those elements? True, there is a tragic note to “East Lynne.” But that is one of the reasons the play has lived these decades in the hearts~ of theatre-goers, Audiences like pathos; the most successful plays and books deal plentifully in the ‘more serious, even tragic, sides of life. Yet there must be a leaven- ing of humor to afford relief from what otherwise would be too de- an atmosphere of gloom. So “East Lynne” is rounded out with its humorous situations mingled appropriately with the more somber vein of the main story. It is a picture that leaver ergot impression on the mind Because such a story demanded the best available screen talent ‘William Fox selected the cast with ite care, Heading the play- rs are Edmund Lowe and Alma Rubens, while in their support are “geen Lou Tellegen, Frank Keenan. ¥) Daw, Belle’ Lydia Knott, Leslie Fenton Martha Mattox, Harry Seymour, Virginia Marshall and Richard Headrick. TOMORROW Von Sternberg ; Film A Novelty _ Siaged critics who went to great 4 to condemn the initial di- rectorial product of Josef von Sternberg, “The Salvation Hunt- ers,” will find, to their disappoint- ment, that this young director has Secomplished in “The Exquisite Sinner,” which shows at the Strand Theatre tomorrow, all that was by his champions when the merits and demerits of “The Salvation Hunters” was the great- ‘eet motion picture topic of the “The Exquisite Sinner,” which ts a screen adaptation of Alden Brooks’ novel “Escape,” has been eet by many able critics as standing head and shoulders @bove all other productions of the past year. And among these critics ‘are said to be several who bitterly denounced “The Salvation Hunt- ers.” In choosing his story for his first Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer pro- duction, von rg deliberate- ly selected a coma 9 opposite from his first success as night from day. He discarded the drabness of ‘his first production for a mantle: of color and comedy. He changed the now famous slow tempo of “The Salvation Hunters” into high speed, discarding sighs and tears for smiles and laughter. But there is one thing he did not discard, and that is his re. markable theme treatment an fomposition, which distinguishes him from all other directors on the sereen. He has made “The Exquisite Sinner” into a satirical. study of psychology where the average director would have played it for @ comedy-drama. ‘The picture tells the story of a young Frenchman who burst the bonds of convention, discarded an aristocratic fiancee, cut loose from family ties, abandoned wealth and went wandering—with a gypsy girl. The cast includes: Conrad Nagel, Renee . Adoree, Paulette Deval, Frank Currier, George K. Arthur, Matthew: Retz, Helena D’Algy and Claire DuBrey. ‘Bennett, | < MOMN POP ‘You.
